Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

Chapter 266: Elite Cavalry

June has arrived, and the weather is unusually hot.

At this moment, on a large piece of flat ground between Wugong County and Fufeng County, a cavalry is training here.

The red sun, everyone is sweating.

They galloped, and after a full half an hour, the team suddenly split into two.

There were about 5,000 people in both teams, and at this moment, the two teams suddenly clashed with each other.

All the soldiers have spears in their hands, but the spear points of the spears have been removed.

The two teams were getting closer, and the soldiers in front had raised their spears, and they stabbed at the opposite soldiers fiercely.

The two teams fought fiercely, and it took a full half an hour before they stopped.

Many people were already lying on the ground at this moment, and they were stabbed with a spear by their comrades-in-arms. Some people have nothing to do, and have turned over and sat up, some have severe pain throughout their bodies, and others have been injured and their ribs seem to be broken.

"Do you have anything to do?" A general stepped down from the horse, strode to the wounded soldiers, and asked anxiously.

"General, we have nothing to do, we can still continue training!" A soldier had blood on his chest, obviously suffering a serious injury, but he still said so.

"You are injured and need a good rest." The general said.

"But, General, everyone is training, and I can't stay alone." The soldier hurriedly said.

"If you are injured, you must rest, and you can continue training when you get better. Don't worry, you are still soldiers of our new army, and we will not leave you behind." The general said.

"But..." the soldier said again, the general had already waved his hand constantly, not letting him go on.

The rest of the soldiers were also extremely exhausted at the moment, they sat on the ground to rest.

"Isn't it very tired?" The general came to the front of everyone and said.

"Not tired!" countless soldiers shouted together.

"I know it must be tired! What you just told was a lie." The general laughed and said.

He never laughed in the past, but suddenly laughed at this moment, looking a little blunt. But the faces of the soldiers below all showed a funny expression, they didn't expect their army commander to laugh.

"But even if we are ten times more tired, we still need training! The last Northern Expedition, the Forbidden Army in Northern Shaanxi, the Jingyuan Army, and the Huanqing Army all made great contributions. Our Forbidden Army, as the most important army of your Majesty, stayed here! For sure! There will be people who say that we are inferior to them, and I am not convinced! We will also build merits in the future, and we must not be worse than them! Therefore, in daily training, we must strictly demand ourselves and never slack!" General Dao.

"What the commander said!" said the next soldier.

"This time General Yue drew 50,000 people from the Forbidden Army to form a cavalry. The troops that can be drawn out, without exception, are troops that have made great contributions in the war, and they are all the best troops in the day. Our new army has only been formed in less than two years, but it can be selected as a cavalry. It can be seen that General Yue attaches great importance to us, and we must not let them down." The general said again.

The soldiers below nodded.

"Furthermore, Your Majesty attaches great importance to the cavalry! Your Majesty has said that we hope that we can enter the Central Plains first and fight the Golden Soldiers in the future! We will be the main force in the eradication of female realities in the future! How important is your Majesty to us, for your Majesty, we should also Hard training is more than enough." The general said again.

Many of the soldiers below showed excitement on their faces and nodded again.

They rested for two quarters of an hour, and then started training again.

This time they practiced the kung fu of riding and shooting, and they kept shooting forward with bows and arrows in their hands. They rode forward constantly on horseback, constantly moving towards the goal.

All afternoon, they were training.

At dusk, they rested while eating dinner.

And in the evening, they trained again, this time they were training immediate swordsmanship.

All cavalry fighters have four weapons, one is a spear, one is a horizontal sword, and the remaining two are bows and arrows, one for long-range shooting and one for close-up shooting.

What they didn't know was that these four weapons were exactly the weapons used by Mongolian soldiers and horses in history. When Genghis Khan fought in the Quartet, all fighters had these four weapons in their hands.

At that time, the Mongolian army was a standard light cavalry. The Mongolian grasslands were extremely barren. The only defense for the Mongols was the helmet on the head. Some of the helmets were made of iron, but more were made of rattan armor. . Although the defensive power of the light cavalry is low, it has the highest mobility in the world. Under the command of Genghis Khan's great roundabout strategy, the Mongolian soldiers and horses have achieved one victory after another. And Zhao Chen now obviously wants to replicate a cavalry like this, and he hopes that this cavalry can cross the Central Plains in the future and eliminate Jurchen.

The night is getting darker, and the soldiers are still training.

It was only when the moon was in the middle of the sky that the soldiers stopped, and they began to rest.

The soldiers have fallen asleep, but several generals of this army have not yet fallen asleep.

On a hill, three generals are standing here.

One of them was the general trained during the day, and he was the commander of the new army, Wang Ying.

The two people next to them are Yang Zheng and Liang Hao.

"Your Majesty said, give us one year for the Forbidden Army, and hope that we can train a strong cavalry! I hope we don’t use one year, we only use half a year! In half a year, I want to see a world The invincible cavalry appeared in front of me." Wang Ying said.

"General, the soldiers are training so hard! There are twelve hours a day, and they are training for eight or nine hours. I am afraid the soldiers will not be able to handle it." Yang Zhengdao.

"If we can't hold it, then we will only be eliminated! We are an army of steel, and only steel fighters can survive! If it is not possible, we can only transfer people from other armies to our new army! There are now. Countless people want to join the cavalry!" Wang Ying said.

Yang Zheng and Liang Hao nodded.

"In October, we will have a large-scale military exercise. At that time, it is time to consider the results. We may have to attack the Fufeng County area from Wugong County. The Second Army, the Fifth Army, and the Eighth Army will defend there. . You said how to break through?" Wang Ying said.

"Commander, I don't like this. You lead half of the soldiers and horses to attract their attention. I will lead people over from Wugong Mountain and copy them from the back." Yang Zhengdao.

"Turn over from Wugong Mountain? People can pass, but can horses pass?" Wang Ying said.

"I don't think there is a problem! Although the road is a little harder, the horses can pass!" Yang Zhengdao.

"What if they find out?" Liang Hao said.

"At that time, we will judge based on the actual situation. We must be surprised and attack them. If they can discover our strategy, it proves that they are better than us, and we need to learn from them." Yang Zhengdao.

Wang Ying nodded.

Although the three of them are all important generals in the army, the three of them are now disgraced. After a day of training, it is impossible for them not to be like this. They discussed the training of tomorrow for a while before returning to the barracks to rest.

On the front lines of Wugong and Fufeng, all the cavalry are training for sleepless nights.

Originally, the crops began to mature in June. Because the land is sparsely populated, many soldiers from the army help the young people to harvest crops. However, the cavalry team is still training. They have received strict orders from Zhao Chen and Yue Fei to let them in a short time. Become a fighting cavalry team, every day and every moment can not be delayed. Apart from training, Zhao Chen and Yue Fei will not entrust them to do anything.

They keep training like this, every day is equivalent to two days of training like others!

The nomads on the grasslands, they grew up on horses, and their riding and shooting skills were exceptionally brilliant. The soldiers of the Forbidden Army do not have such advantages, but they have the diligence that no one has. They must rely on their own sweat to catch up with the alien races on the grassland. They believe that in the future, their riding and shooting will definitely not be under those alien races.

They just train day after day, month after month, and never rest!

Regardless of the scorching sun, no matter the heavy rain, no matter the sand and dust, they are training, never-ending training.

It has arrived in August of the lunar calendar, and the weather has finally turned cooler.

The sorghum planted by the Production and Construction Corps began to mature in large tracts, and countless young people began to harvest sorghum into intense labor.

However, the manpower is still insufficient.

On the afternoon of this day, Zhao Chen led the officers and soldiers of the imperial camp into the crop fields and helped the youth to harvest sorghum together.

Zhao Chen had been working all afternoon, and he didn't get out of the field until the sunset.

He was covered in sweat, and his clothes had become extremely dirty.

A young man next to him brought a basin of water, and Zhao Chen washed his face. Only then did the young man and a group of Yuying come to a nearby village.

Here, there are already young people who have prepared meals and entertained Zhao Chen and others.

"This sorghum still needs more than ten days to harvest." After finishing the meal, Zhao Chen gathered the young people together and said with a smile.

The youths next to each other nodded.

"After the sorghum is harvested, you still can't stay idle. You have to build the road to Guanshan. At that time, you will have to work hard again. You are busy all year round, and you don't have much time to rest. It is extremely hard." Zhao Chen Tao.

"Your Majesty, don't say that. The soldiers of the Forbidden Army have been training hard."

"Yes, Your Majesty. There are countless imperial soldiers who died on the battlefield. Compared to them, we are nothing."

The young people next to each other said one after another.

"I have said before that this is a great era of ups and downs. This is a great era in which we Han Chinese have completely risen up and are eternally prosperous. In this great era, everyone is contributing and everyone is working hard. The country will remember your contributions, and history will remember your contributions. This country and this nation will undergo earth-shaking changes in our hands. Now we are working very hard, but in the future, we will be proud of these hard work. We will feel that all this is worth it. We can tell our descendants that we did not live in vain. We used our best efforts to do the most meaningful thing in the world." Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, we understand!" The young man next to him nodded with a very excited expression on his face.

"I'm not talking big or empty words to lie to you, I'm talking from my heart." Zhao Chen said.

After Zhao Chen finished speaking, everyone next to him laughed.

"Not only you are working hard, I am also working hard. Over the years, I have hardly had a good day of rest. I hope that in the future, when this country becomes prosperous, you and I can lay down the burdens on our shoulders, and we can enjoy ourselves. Okay?" Zhao Chen said.

Suddenly, there was an applause around me.

During the night of this day, Zhao Chen rested here.

However, the lights in his room were on all the time, and political affairs from all over the country were continuously sent to him. He was dealing with political affairs at night.

After finishing the political affairs, Zhao Chen finally turned off the lights, he meditated on the bed, and it took a long time before he really lay down.

But the next morning, when the sky was dark, he had already woke up again. He harvested sorghum together with the soldiers and young people, and he was busy for another day.

On August 15th, villages in Wugong County and Fufeng County held grand celebrations, this time it was to celebrate the harvest! There was a bumper harvest of food this year, and all the young people were extremely excited.

Then these young people will be invested in the construction of the Guanshan Highway.

Throughout the winter, they may have difficulty resting.

And Zhao Chen has returned to the county seat of Wugong County at this moment.

He spends most of his time dealing with political and official affairs.

At that night, Wang De came to Zhao Chen's room, and Wang De put a piece of information he had just received in front of Zhao Chen.

"Your Majesty, those Jianghu figures in Jiangnan are all ready to move! What kind of treasure they want to help Zhao Go to get out! Said that if you get the treasure, you can get the world! It's just that our intelligence personnel have not yet grasped the specific information." Wang Dedao.

"Treasure? It's ridiculous! The governance of the country and the attack on the world rely on diligence, knowledge of people and good use, and the unity of all people. Do you think it is possible to get the world from treasure?" Zhao Chen laughed.

"This is naturally impossible, but, Your Majesty, this treasure seems to be no small thing, we still have to be careful." Wang De said.

"You pay me careful attention! If you have any news, send it to me." Zhao Chen said.

Wang De nodded and left immediately.

Zhao Chen stood in front of the window, looked to the east, pondering the movements of those Jiangnan martial arts people, but felt that it might not be related to the treasure, and it was very likely that he would be assassinated. In any case, he felt a little weird.
